THE LIGHT YOU NEED EXISTS

01. DANCE 02. YOU GOTTA GET OUT (Helge Torvund & Randi Tytingvåg) (Helge Torvund & Randi Tytingvåg)

Dance with your heart You gotta get away from this place And your body will follow Before it closes your heart Everything else is You gotta get out of this room Useless and hollow Before your mind goes dark

There’s a gift When you’re walking in the alleyway That I get when I give it And the rain is everywhere Life is a caress You’re suddenly so wide awake When I just start to live it The afternoon is wet and clear

The blackbird is singing It will soon be too late I can hear every part but you can do it right now The morning is living They will never change, but you know how Dance with your heart And your body will follow You gotta get away from this place Everything else is Before it closes your heart Useless and hollow You gotta get out of this room Before your mind goes dark There’s a light That gets lit when I see it When you’re standing by the beach Hope is not a wish And the wind is all there is But my feelings can free it Your whole body is alive So please remember this: Our love is a power But it’s also an art It will soon be too late Reflect on it now or but you can do it right now They will never change, Dance with your heart but you know how And your body will follow Everything else is You gotta get away from this place Useless and hollow Before it closes your heart You gotta get out of this room Before your mind goes dark THE LIGHT YOU NEED EXISTS

03. UNDER A TALL TREE 04. LOOK UP (Helge Torvund & Randi Tytingvåg) (Helge Torvund & Randi Tytingvåg)

Sometimes when I am standing It’s better to look up, look up Under a tall, majestic tree Reach for balloons in the sky I forget my name, I’m not alone No one can hold you down My soul is free Don’t ever let go of your crown Look up I have come through withered grass Look up With heavy thoughts I’ve wondered if I’d loose myself It’s better to look up, look up Or if I’d get across Right to the top of the trees Spreading its branches out But under this old majestic oak Embracing what life’s all about my wounds are starting to heal Look up Nothing can hurt me here, I believe this is for real Look up Nature will mend what broke I have found a visual calm I have felt the wind come A luxury for free hurling down my way Shutting out the noise and looking up In times of trouble I discover I’m free I’m glad that someone else could pray It’s better to look up, look up I’m lifted a little higher Gaze at the stars in the sky Although I’m standing on the ground When the perspective’s right My thoughts forever different The answer will soon be in sight I’ll always keep what I have found Look up Look up Under this old majestic oak my wounds are starting to heal Nothing can hurt me here, I believe this is for real Nature will mend what broke

I feel the red joy of a squirrel grip the branches of my breath An unusual energy that seems stronger than death

Under this old majestic oak my wounds are starting to heal Nothing can hurt me here, I believe this is for real Nature will mend what broke THE LIGHT YOU NEED EXISTS

05. HOVERING GREEN 06. HELIOTROPIC (Helge Torvund & Randi Tytingvåg) (Helge Torvund & Randi Tytingvåg)

I'll play you a song on my summertime strings, I am heliotropic a song that can fill you with joy I am leaning towards the sun It will tell you a tale of these wonderful things I don’t remember exactly in a tune that is playful and coy when all this began But I am heliotropic A melody hiding in buds and in seed I am leaning towards the sun and in bulbs that await in the dark A tune that is trapped, but soon will be free How can we manage to light a fire It will rise to the sky with the lark in the deepest, darkest eyes? How can we possibly lift the burden It is the season of love of destruction and slippery lies? It brings light to the words and eggs in the nests I am heliotropic of all kinds of birds I am leaning towards the sun I don’t remember exactly I'll sing you a song of the life-giving light when all this began that will wake in the fields of my dream But I am heliotropic Over the meadows so soft and so bright I am leaning towards the sun comes a new shade of hovering green Where the path is winding into the forest The river will run with a glimmering flow the shadows are casting their spell and a song with the strength of a stream Proving the light is present And we'll all be part of the shimmering show and part of the picture as well as the world becomes one with our dream In every leaf, the light is working It is the season of love The sunflower’s turning its flower It brings light to the words We are all depending and eggs in the nests on the light in our darkest hour of all kinds of birds I am heliotropic I am leaning towards the sun I don’t remember exactly when all this began But I am heliotropic I am leaning towards the sun THE LIGHT YOU NEED EXISTS

07. MISERY LOVES BAD COMPANY 08. THE LIGHT YOU NEED EXISTS (Helge Torvund & Randi Tytingvåg) (Helge Torvund & Randi Tytingvåg)

Misery loves bad company You asked me once in a worried voice It somehow keeps hope in custody Do I have a choice? The upside of things is hidden away You asked me once in a tone so strange It’s dark whether it’s night or day Do I have to change? Or can I just accept He lost his mum at a young age that I am the way I am? She was his all, and when he needed her he could always call If you accept that you are you Now there’s nowhere to turn You have made the most important change His dad is a drunk and a big concern That you can do

Misery loves bad company And when another day of trouble is coming up the It somehow keeps hope in custody hill The upside of things is hidden away And something in your mind still resists It’s dark whether it’s night or day I just hope that you always will remember this: The light you need exists His sister waited too long Before she cried out for help A question mark in your dark eyes there was so much wrong Put there by too many lies Therapy seems to be a blur Your worried voice is getting wise And now she says that it’s not for her And so you asked me twice Can I just accept Misery loves bad company that I am the way I am? It somehow keeps hope in custody The upside of things is hidden away If you accept that you are you It’s dark whether it’s night or day You’ll be gaining insights Only known by a lucky few The oldest knows that she must sit still This boat will not rock , And when another day of trouble is coming up the she knows the drill hill Her house, her kids and her man And something in your mind still resists She is doing her best with her own plan I just hope that you always will remember this: The light you need exists She tries to break out, she fights her doubt This is what every day life’s about And she will take back what she has lost Hope, at any cost THE LIGHT YOU NEED EXISTS

09. WHAT WILL KISS YOUR SECONG THOUGHT? 10. BUTTERFLY (Helge Torvund & Randi Tytingvåg) (Helge Torvund & Randi Tytingvåg)

Is there anything you really know? Butterfly, butterfly What in your heart is true? I'll understand it better by and by Does anybody have a clue Butterfly, butterfly what is the right thing to do? Softer than a human sigh

Someone you know quite well You knew that it was time might get very ill So you stayed in your cocoon Could you hold the light up still? No one really understood What words of comfort would you tell? That it would happen quite so soon

Soon there will be snow It was hard to watch you disappear What will kiss your second thought? You didn't get to hear the birds The sky is falling, perhaps we ought We listened to your favourite songs to keep our heads down low? When we couldn’t really find the words

What can hold a fragile bridge Butterfly, butterfly over the windy stream? I'll understand it better by and by Sometimes it seems Butterfly, butterfly like we’re on the ridge. Softer than a human sigh

Soon there will be snow You always dreamt that you would fly What will kiss your second thought? Though your grounding was so sound The sky is falling, perhaps we ought A hungry soul and an open mind to keep our heads down low? You took care of what you found

In the dark and frosty night Will we meet again? I can sense a quiet smile I hope, I wish, I dream, I miss I haven’t seen it for a while But I don’t know, and no one knows I hope that things will turn out right Just what comes after this

Butterfly, butterfly I'll understand it better by and by Butterfly, butterfly Softer than a human sigh

Memories Sorrow’s grace I will always keep you in my heart Although you’ve left for another place

Butterfly, butterfly I'll understand it better by and by Butterfly, butterfly Softer than a human sigh THE LIGHT YOU NEED EXISTS

11. BACK IN LOVE (Helge Torvund & Randi Tytingvåg)

I was walking through the galleries Inside my visual joy, When I came upon a painting Of an ancient farmer boy His hair so clear in the sunshine And his eyes so innocent blue And suddenly, my darling I was back in love with you

I was hiding from the rain In a little coffee shop Watching the glittering window I followed every single drop As they melted into one another The music was turning blue And suddenly, my darling I was back in love with you

I was working for some years In another busy town, I thought it would distract me So I wouldn’t feel so down But it didn’t work that way It was all in vain, the smog was just too grey And as I was heading back It felt like a heavenly attack

Now I am walking through the galleries where we so often walked We were laughing secretly And whispered when we talked Sometimes a certain picture has this special Persian blue And suddenly, my darling I am back in love with you
